This is totally raw and needs a lot of hacking, but look, I can dump subtrees from my Org notes into Evernote using Emacs Evernote Mode. The desktop app handles these perfectly, although the Android app does funny things to the whitespace if you edit the note. Still, great as a reference!

I got mine to work under Cygwin after following the notes in the config. I also edited the .rb script to make it go to the http address instead of https, as my Ruby doesn’t seem to have SSL support and I haven’t gotten around to fixing it yet. Hope that helps!

Dave: I mostly use Evernote for the ability to search within hand-written images, which I use for my sketchnotes. I’m also curious about the ability to easily take image and sound notes. So far, no problems with information fragmentation, even between Org and my blog and Evernote. =) I’ll probably run into that someday, but in the meantime, not stressing out about it – just keeping redundant copies of things that are particularly important to me.

That sounds more like the Evernote command-line tool bundled with evernote-mode isn’t working for you. Could you ask Yusuke Kawakami, who wrote evernote-mode? https://github.com/rubbish/evernote-mode might be another variant to try. Note that you’ll need to have Ruby set up on your system.

Hi Sacha! I’m new to Emacs and I was excited by this evernote-mode. But evernote switched to Oauth authentification and the mode. Have you got some news about this?

Also I like Evernote for its search capabilities, like PDF or images OCR searches. I’m in school so I have a lot of documents and switch just to Org-mode isn’t possible. Maybe you’ve got some tips to get organized with all these documents easily!

I just spent some time trying to get evernote-mode working in my Emacs install. I believe some semi-substantial work will need to be done to it to work with the new authentication system. Right now it seems to be set up to log in as an API consumer, and that process is onerous (you have to get an API key, and then request that Evernote make it live on the production site. Even then, who knows if it will actually work).

C’est la vie. =( Even as an API consumer, it still won’t work because Evernote doesn’t currently support out-of-band authentication.

vicco

is it the same problem for nixnote? I wonder if this would work as an indirect access to evernote.

Sacha –
I have found more immediately useful stuff related to emacs org mode at your site than anywhere else[1], so thanks! Now that it looks as if Evernote will be a preferred format by my co-workers, I want to get evernote-mode working on Windows and Linux boxen. May I complain here about my bafflement when I get stuck?

Aww, thanks! Yes, you may, although it won’t be any use until Evernote supports out-of-band authentication. =( Or someone makes a web-based service that takes an Org file and Does Stuff To It…

Hi Sacha,
Thanks for the link to my Github project page! A few of us are still working on evernote-mode and it’s kind of getting better. It uses OAuth now, and I’ve been fiddling with the org-mode integration.
